Mike is just trying to bring focus to it, attention to it. We have to play within the rules.
It juices up our guys. It gives you momentum. It gives you life. It makes your team feel like it's controlling the line of scrimmage.
There's no question we're going to look at Craig a lot this week. He's ready and he's anxious to play.
There's no question that's the No. 1 thing we've got to get fixed between now and the Vikings game. We have to get our run game going.
It really limits us in our passing game. We like to use two tight ends in our passing game and we couldn't.
He's just the most consistent guy we got. He always comes and gives you his best and he always makes plays. Every game he makes plays. He's our playmaker now.
We had hoped to go in that direction more so than we were able to. It hit us late in the week, which was kind of a tough hurdle. But our chances were there.
I think that will help us. The confidence he brings by making the right calls and the experience that he's got, that will help us.
Do I think he's capable of it? I'd say without question. I think he knows that. I think all of our receivers know that. All of our coaches know that. I think the people that maybe question it are those who aren't in practice every day, don't see the way he practices, the fun he has.
He's still not there completely, but he did everything.
